Italy's General Strike Protests Gaza Conflict

On September 22, 2025, Italy witnessed a nationwide general strike organized by grassroots unions to protest the country's involvement in the Gaza conflict. The strike, which saw participation from over 75 municipalities, aimed to halt arms shipments from Italian ports to Israel and to express solidarity with Palestinians. Demonstrations were held in cities like Milan and Bologna, where at least 60 people were injured and 18 arrested. The Italian government's support for Israel's actions in Gaza has faced increasing criticism, leading to widespread public outcry. The strike underscored the growing discontent among Italians regarding their government's foreign policy decisions.
